What You'll Actually Learn
We've stripped out the fluff and focused on techniques that work in Australian financial markets. Here's what our graduates tell us they use most often.
Market Position Mapping
Learn to create visual representations of competitive landscapes that actually inform decision-making. We teach you how to gather reliable data, validate assumptions, and present findings that stakeholders understand and act on. This is the skill graduates mention most frequently when they contact us months later.
Financial Statement Analysis
Master reading between the lines of competitor financial reports. You'll learn what matters and what's just noise.
Pricing Strategy Assessment
Understand how competitors structure their pricing and identify opportunities in market gaps.
Market Share Dynamics
Track shifts in competitive position using publicly available data and analytical frameworks.
Risk Assessment Frameworks
Evaluate competitor vulnerabilities and strengths using structured analysis methods.
Regulatory Impact Analysis
Australian financial services operate under specific regulatory constraints that create both opportunities and limitations. You'll learn to assess how regulatory changes affect competitive positions and identify compliance-driven advantages. This module draws heavily on ASIC and APRA developments from 2024-2025.
Digital Transformation Tracking
Monitor how competitors invest in technology and assess the strategic implications for market positioning.
